Alcoholics lie, cheat and steal to fuel their habit. Extreme alcohol is a horrific poison to the body and mind.
I'd wager a healthy man who can drink you under the table, wouldn't reveal any secrets. He'll finish the drink in his own time.
- AdrianB1 3y agoHaving a drink with the colleagues has nothing to do with alcoholism. I used to organize nights out with colleagues even if I was never drinking alcohol (I had to drive). But the point in "going for a beer" is socializing and informal communication, not the beer.
- parpfish 3y agoThe internet has done a great job illustrating the huge range of what people think “normal” drinking looks like. There are a surprising amount of people that think anybody that has ever been drunk is an alcoholic.
- barrysteve 3y agoObviously having a drink with the colleagues has nothing to do with alcoholism. I was responding to the comment that 'in the extreme, alcohol is a truth serum'. It isn't.
- theultdev 3y agoI don't think they meant extreme as in repetitive use. I think they meant when you've drank enough to be drunk. e.g it's not very effective as a truth serum if you've only had a little.
